It will not reduce.There are only two ways.One is refractive surgery and the other is contact lense.You have said surgery is not possible because of corneal shape. Are you having conicalcornea? Get yourself examined in a refractive surgery OPD. If the case is not suitable then contact lense is the only answer.
